Strategies for getting the perfect vacation property experience:

Sticking to your budget:

• In the Hatteras area, The earlier you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The best properties are booked very early. Booking your rental home up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your vacation home.
• To find the largest vacation home within budget, we highly recommend reserving in the Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at Hatteras restaurants, tours, and activities.
• Some owners offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally costs 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Look for your local Hatteras visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines have offers and deals for nearby tours and attractions.

Planning, picking, and booking the right Hatteras rental:

• Select a group leader, select your trip dates, and choose a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Ocean-view home with central AC, pool, & hot tub has 7 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally available online. If not, contact the property manager before you reserve the property. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Some rentals allow pets, but others don't. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the property manager about pet restrictions before booking.
• Visiting for a specific attraction or event? If so, use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .

More tips for your stay:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental. We recommend storing the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, intercom or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents quite a few concerns.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are away, just like you would at home.
• To make sure damages are not linked to your stay, note any problem areas upon check in. Contact the property manager immediately to relay your findings. If there is a dispute, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a fantastic resource to find the best local beaches.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Double-check every room of the property to make sure that you've packed everything on check-out day. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a excellent stay? Most rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
